On Saturday the 5th of April 2014, Their Majesties Alfar of Attica and Angahrat Benbras attended the Baronial changeover of the landed gentry of the Barony of Innilgard. The event was held at Estonian Hall in North Adelaide, South Australia and was stewarded by Lady Collette de Harcourt.

During the feast following the investiture, a fierce green dragon (made of sugarplate by Lady Fionnabhair inghean ui Mheadhra) was slew with a poleaxe by Baron Yevan and finished off by His Majesty Alfar – thus protecting the Barony, and indeed the Kingdom, from its sugary wrath.
